Smart Phone, Smarter House October 4, 2011
By Kortney Gentry
 

Living in the age of smart phones, we have become accustom to having nearly everything at our fingertips.  I always find myself in deep thought, wondering “what can I do with my handy little iPhone next?”  Well now I know…

West Bay Way

When driving down West Bay Way Place in Beach Park Isle, you may come across one of the most amazingly modern 3 bedroom 3.5 bath homes in the area.  Not only does this fabulous Tampa home feature a 13 seat movie theater, air conditioned 1,700 sq ft garage with a 2 car lift, an elevator, and a state of the art kitchen with custom wood cabinetry and a dual sub zero refrigerator (and we are not talking about mortal combat here), but the majority of this fabulous man cave can be remotely controlled by none other than the iPhone 4 itself.  Welcome to the future!

Bay Way Rental

Forget to lock the doors, turn off the theater screen, shut the blinds or adjust the a/c before you left for work?  No problem!  And, just to be sure nothing fishy went on before you were able to lock up, you can check the footage from the 4 cameras watching the home….all from your iPhone via a special $50 app.  Well worth the money.

While we haven’t found a way to beam you up to a listing appointment yet, Tampa Realtor, Larry Pollin would be happy to show you around until we do.

If controlling this Tampa rental with your iPhone is the present, what kind of stuff do you think we will see in the future?  I’m seeing a viewing party…
